The company announced plans to relocate to St. Petersburg in late 2024.
"We're thrilled to learn that Foot Locker has secured its move to St. Petersburg with a major presence in the Carillon area," said Mayor Kenneth T. Welch. "When a Fortune 500 company relocates its headquarters, its leadership, and its team members to the Tampa Bay region, it's an investment in the promise of St. Pete's culture, workforce, and local economy. As we continue our support of Foot Locker's transition to our city, we remain committed to sustaining an impactful business environment so companies of all sizes can call St. Petersburg home."
"We're proud to establish our new headquarters in St. Petersburg, a city that has warmly welcomed Foot Locker, Inc.," said Frank Bracken, President of Foot Locker, Inc. "As we accelerate our Lace Up Plan, we believe the metropolitan Tampa Bay area provides the perfect environment to align our internal teams, attract top talent, and connect with the local community. With many of our team members already calling this city home, we're excited to deepen our roots, foster connectivity, and create greater alignment and inspiration for our team and brand partners to bring sneaker culture to life."
"Welcoming Foot Locker, Inc. to St. Petersburg underscores 570 Carillon's preeminent position as a premier office space where high-profile organizations can grow and thrive," said Andrew Wiener, Head of Commercial Office Leasing at The Feil Organization. "We continue to see prominent companies prioritizing Southwest Florida as an opportunity for both headquarters and satellite locations. Leading companies recognize that the region offers employees a high quality of life, Class A work spaces and abundant amenities that both attract and retain valuable talent."
